Introduction

Analytic Systems introduces the updated IBI2/3 series of battery isolators, allowing you to charge 2 bank 

or 3 bank battery systems from a single alternator. Ideal for automotive, marine or trucking purposes, 

the IBI also isolates the battery banks using Analytic Systems’ Ideal Diode technology preventing a 

discharged bank from draining a charged one.

Ideal Diode technology uses MOSFET transistors and control circuitry in place of the diode used in 

traditional battery isolators. By doing so, the IBI is able to operate with a fraction of voltage drop found 

in diode-based battery isolators. At its maximum rated current the voltage drop is a miniscule 0.16V 

and essentially zero at low currents. This way, all the power of the alternator is applied to the batteries 

ensuring a full recharge every time.

A green LED indicator clearly shows that the IBI has been correctly connected.

The IBI is available in two models, the IBI2 for 2 battery banks and the IBI3 for 3 battery banks. The IBI1, a 

custom high-current single battery bank isolator is also available by special order.
